Yes, another GOP debate tonight - see Herman Cain explode!

[Riot]

Get your popcorn, watch it live: CNBC at 8pm eastern.

Aside from seeing The Cain Train suffering a massive Cainwreck, Mitt Romney famously said in the past to "let Detroit fail" regarding the auto industry.

Now that the auto industry was indeed saved, and 80,000 jobs were created instead of 2 million lost, let's see how Detroit welcomes Mittens, who wanted the auto industry to go away and just fail!

The Republican debate Wednesday is supposed to focus on the economy.

Against the Michigan backdrop of rapid foreclosures and 11.1 percent unemployment, it’s an appropriate theme.

But it’s also the first debate since the sexual-harassment scandal surrounding GOP candidate Herman Cain first emerged. And that’s the issue sparking the most interest.

It’s uncertain whether any debate questions will raise the the allegations directly (although it seems likely), but it’s almost certain to come up. Especially now that Karen Kraushaar went public with her allegations Tuesday night, the second accuser to do so.

Perhaps the person of most interest is Newt Gingrich, who has watched his own numbers slowly climb recently, into the low double digits, and who has been putting in solid debate performances.

Public Policy Polling surveys over the weekend showed the former House Speaker now running ahead of Romney in Ohio and Mississippi, and tied with him for the lead in an Iowa district, and he was the second choice of Cain supporters in the three places that PPP polled.

Here are a few things to watch tonight:
